Galatea and Pandora

I've just fallen in love with Galatea (of the Pygmalion myth) and Pandora, and I would love to know what you think. Also, what nicknames and middle names would work? I love Tea (tee-uh, not tee) and Dora, but what others would work?

Re: Galatea and Pandora

I love both names! Tea, definitely, for Galatea...possibly Gala? Or Gallie/Gally (like Callie with a G)...and I adore the name Pandora, and the nn Dora, but what about Pan (like the satyr?) or Andie/Pandie? Pandie is a bit of a stretch (maybe one that just you would call her) and the name of a panda puppet I was forced to tell my feelings to in grade school, but still a viable option. Good luck!

Re: Galatea and Pandora

I actually like the Panda thing, it might be a cute nickname. And I also prefer the gal-uh-TAY-uh pronunciation, but Nameberry says its gal-uh-TEH-uh. Which seems a bit awkward to me, but I'm not sure. I'll have to consult someone who knows a lot about history. And I'm familiar with the Pandora myth, but Pandora was also very beautiful and graceful and that's what I think of.
